Inspirational Post for Whimsy Stamps

Well I back with another card for Whimsy Stamps using the digital image by Moon Cookie Gallery called 'Branches of Love". I really love this tree because it reminds me of Autumn and how the trees start to turn color. I colored "Branches of Love" using my Prismacolor pencils and added some orange glitter for the leaves. I then decided to glitter around the branches using some transparent yellow and red glitter to make it look like a sunset. Autumn doesn't arrive for another couple of weeks and in Alberta, we have been having unseasonal hot weather +27 C for the last couple of days. I take that anytime now that summer is almost gone and kids are back in school. So here is my card, I started off using Early Espresso for my base which is a 5"x7" finished card size. I then used the latest Bo Bunny Collection called 'Autumn Song' for the rest. I used 3 layers, after laying the first one down, I offset the next 2 layers. I then used some orange glitter ribbon which I found at Michael's before placing all 3 layers down. I then laid down a tag using Bo Bunny 'Noteworthy stickers' from the same collection. On top of that I cut out a frame using the new Spellbinders die called 'Gold Majestic Circles' using red paper from Autumn Song collection. I then sponged on Viva Decor Inka Gold in Lava Red and Orange. I then cut out the sticker from Autumn Song sticker collection using another Spellbinders die called 'Label 13' again sponged on Lava Red Inka Gold. I add some leaf buttons along with a bow using Gold/Brown satin ribbon by May Arts.
